Most of the lunches will end up dumped in the scrap barrels as they file out of the lunchroom.
If it does not end up as ammunition in a food fight.
I guess that is where the phrase “Eat it or wear it!” came from.
I heard some school was going to set up cameras by the trash cans, so they could document how much food was being thrown away.
Of course, they indicated that they would not identify individual students who threw away food with such cameras.
Just what we need, kids getting sent to the principal’s office for not eating what Michelle Obama wants them to eat.
NEW School lunches = Waste of money...better for the children to eat something rather than throwing away a lunch.
Are these people insane?
A peanut butter sandwich is not offensive, or a grilled cheese made with something other than transfats; and home lunches should be allowed. I would bet soup and a sandwich the children would want is better than the stuff from Mooches menu.
Unbelievable waste of food...but what can you expect when they think they can throw away trillions of taxpayer’s hard earned money. Parents need to step up and really protest this new lunch crap!
If you remember E Coli came from CA spinach; and if salads and fruits aren’t cleaned property they pose a stronger risk than Pizza, Sandwiches, Mac n Cheese, or any other lunch menu previous to this scam.
If you stood near the trash barrels in an inner city [Title I/free lunch] school as kids clean-up their breakfast or lunch trays....you’d be livid at the waste. Unopened milk cartons are tossed out b/c they were *served*....kids must take a milk, even if they know they won’t ddrink it. Workers are too lazy to take the unopened cartons, put them aside and figure out how to get them to a food bank somewhere to be properly appreciated.
